「你曾經有過的每一個想法都是真的。」書的一開始就寫到這句，我們逃避我們想的，直到它們出現在我們眼前，我看著仿生人殺手瑞克的悲傷眼神，像在說所有你曾逃避的想法，終會加速它們的來臨。雨與淚中折射出來的地球，可是我們曾記得的故鄉？銀翼殺手【經典重譯本‧吳明益專文導讀】 1968 more

內容簡介

The classic sci-fi novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, which inspired two major motion pictures: Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049

By 2021, the World War has killed millions, driving entire species into extinction and sending mankind off-planet. Those who remain covet any living creature, and for people who can't afford one, companies build incredibly realistic simulacra: horses, birds, cats, sheep. They've even built humans. Immigrants to Mars receive androids so sophisticated they are indistinguishable from true men or women. Fearful of the havoc these artificial humans can wreak, the government bans them from Earth. Driven into hiding, unauthorized androids live among human beings, undetected. Rick Deckard, an officially sanctioned bounty hunter, is commissioned to find rogue androids and "retire" them. But when cornered, androids fight back--with lethal force.
